"According to the event’s website, “winners” are picked by a committee of 12 "industry insiders" whose identities are not revealed. Most are likely people with big chunks of skin in the awards game.

As such, like many years prior, filmmakers will take the stage to accept awards for movies that no one has seen. There are no nominees, because there are no set categories. Friday night will see 18 “awards” handed out, because that’s how many categories Abreu and his shadow committee negotiated with talent who agreed to show up — and do whatever else needs to be done for consideration."

As a Deppvotee I'm saying he was trying to stymie his stage fright by doing this drunken Hunter S. Sparrow fuse thing, and cursing always solves all when in doubt. Or maybe he was playing to his new buddy Doug Stanhope?? Certainly not for everyone.

But be honest. Most of the Oscar nominated movies are usually things that were playing in one NY and One LA theatre for one weekend in December to qualify and then hope to get nominated for the free publicity for a Jan release.

Yep, all I can see from that clip is Jack Sparrow...and I'm ok with that. I tried to watch those awards, but couldn't take more than 15 minutes. What a bore fest! Even the promise of Johnny Depp couldn't keep me interested.
